Holloway Girl

I was out in the cold of a North London street
A cog in the Hurrying world
Above the walls and the gate police
I caught a glimpse of a Holloway Girl
She was reaching out of a window
>From a space just a few inches wide
Till the hand of Justice pulled her back inside.
One day, freedom will unlock your door
So hold on, dream on
Be who you were before
I know how hard it can be to wait
For proof you were right all along
Self-destruction is easy for you
We know what you're capable of
But like a needle in a haystack
The truth gets so disguised
In a kingdom built on madness and on lies
One day, freedom will unlock your door
So hold on, dream on
Be who you were before
In deepes darkness
The faintest light looks bright
So hold on, hold on
It's gonna be alright
You're looking up at a mountain
Between you and the outside
But there isn't a mountain in this whole world
Hasn't been climbed
One day...
